Ski Bowl has a ton of summer activities from an alpine slide to rock climbing to zip lining and bungee jumping!
If you’ve never been to Multnomah Falls, it’s a must see! You can also hike to the top of it!
Take a ride in the tram! Wonderful views of Portland and even of Mt. Hood on a sunny day!
In case you want a sneak peak of where we are getting married!! About a 4 mile hike round trip
Another gorgeous lake in the area that is easier to access than Mirror Lake, but slightly more trafficked
If you’re want to catch a view of the ocean, Cannon Beach and several other beaches are about a 3 hour drive away!
